      Does every frequency spectrum mid high low has to be same volume to have a fuller mix?

    • @khayree

      I would like to thank you Devvon.
      Every single one of your videos is the formula. I have several questions I will ask a few.
      What interface do you use?
      What resolution are you recording at?
      . Other than the Neve what else do you use on your mix buss?
      I am currently using an Antelope orion synergy core and I am very dissatisfied with it. Primarily what I am missing with it is top in. I used to use ARME 800 and I loved it when I can pair mixes from the RME to the Antelope the Antelope sounds muffled same song same mix.
      Do you do consultations?
      Last question for now I am looking at the lynx Aurora.16 Ch AD/DA Or Apollo 16Ch hexa core.
      I use a 16 channel passive Summing mixer powered by Neve 1272 with an API 2500 hardware on the mix bus.
      The Antelope orion synergy core converters are not crisp it’s like 30% of the mix is covered with blankets.
      If you do consultations send me an email with a cell number I will gladly pay you for your time and knowledge. Again I greatly appreciate as an older producer you taking the art form to another. level
      great music and great engineering skills etc. Appreciate you

    Bruh, my stuff sounds 10 times better now with your tips than when I was recording before I heard of you!! I literally went and re-EQ'd and compressed some vocals on some old recordings I had did using tips I got from you and they just sound worlds better. thank you so much!!

  • @yamwast
    @yamwast 3 года назад +31

    When i started mixing i used to cut too heavily at the low end of the vocals - i've found a mixture of low-mids cutting & the "mud" region of 200-400hz to be a better solution. as well as some multiband compression, subtle stereo imaging and a touch of waves doubler all help give vocals that full sound. nice video!

  • @jasonchu4400
    @jasonchu4400 3 года назад +17

    i understand everything so precisely Devon this shit so under-rated, we need a mixer who does not just do other people's vocals, but YOUR OWN Vocals! we're not tryna make beats or produce, we tryna learn how to mix our own VOCALS!!!!!
    it's kinda rare for a engineer to teach you how to do vocal mixing....because they're all focused on making beats

    • @EthanRadell
      @EthanRadell 3 года назад +1

      bro what? do you know what an engineer is? their main purpose is to mix vocals. producers make beats

    • @jasonchu4400
      @jasonchu4400 2 года назад

      no dooode there's different type of Engineers in Music Production itself....let alone REAL Mechanical, Software, Electrical Engineers in real life...
      the main purpose of an "Engineer" is to mix vocals....hella false my ninja
      does a master engineer or acoustic engineer "main purpose"...is to mix "VOCALS"???? no i dont think so!
      FIRST OF ALL
      YOU SHOULD BE THE FIRST ONE to know how and stylistically mix your own vocals...
      so you can at least have the English to talk to an engineer when you pay for their services you know what you want
      SECOND if you want to keep the style of the beat PURE then send stem vocals to the Producer that MADE THAT BEAT ITSELF! then let HIM Mix YOUR VOCALS....to HIS OWN STYLE OF his beat instead of a third-party unless you know them and did your homework and have a significant amount of experience using mixing services of all sorts including your own

  • @crimewavbeats5532
    @crimewavbeats5532 4 года назад +5

    My rule of thumb is to keep it natural as possible, today's mixing styles sound more "thinny" due to the preferred brightness and modern microphones, once you start tweaking excessively and cutting or boosting too much you, kill dynamics and ultimately killing the integrity of the human voice , me personally I just rid of unnecessary sub lows and then tame the lows ,(usually with a eq cut at 3 or 500hz and multiband compression to control the low end ) boost at the top and then compress and automate ,the d-ess just a tad .that way the vocal is consistent and balanced across the board
